Over the course of a K-12 education, a child will spend more than 15,000 hours at school. Classrooms, cafeterias, libraries, and gyms — even when cleaned to high standards — are reservoirs for biological and chemical contaminants.
Year-round, school building conditions may expose students and staff to substances that trigger asthma, allergies, headaches, nausea, and other symptoms that make it difficult, if not impossible, to learn or teach.
For Head Start programs and affiliates across the country, it's important to consider your facility's indoor air quality disinfection protocols.
WellAir's medical-grade solutions helps schools optimize health, wellbeing, cognitive function, and productivity for children and staff by reducing and eliminating harmful microorganisms.
WellAir is committed to offering equitable opportunities for clean air to everyone.
In October 2021, our Head Start program was able to provide several Nanostrike units in our classrooms and gyms. Each portable air disinfection device is proven to remove airborne viruses and bacteria. [The units are] extremely quiet when in operation and can run 24/7. Our staff do not need to clean or worry about the maintenance of the unit[s].

The WellAir [Protect 900] portable air infection prevention device provides vital peace of mind. The medical-grade NanoStrike technology it uses helps to safely clean the air by reducing contaminants and viruses 24 hours a day. The decision was obvious once we reviewed the scientific data, specifically its effectiveness on the SARS CoV-2 virus.
Ken Mueller, Director of Operations
We looked at many options and chose the Protect 900 from WellAir. The units were easy to set up, very quiet and we don’t have to worry about buying filters or disposing of them. The NanoStrike Technology from WellAir is clinically proven, amazing and we trust it! We feel safer and the parents of our children appreciate the steps we’ve taken to improve indoor air quality for our kids and staff.
